When a word and number arrangement machine is given an input line of words and numbers, it arranges them following a particular rule. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement (All the numbers are two-digit number)

Input: 5 elope 2 solution 3 universities in 1 after 4 6 idealise

Step I : Universities 6 5 elope 2 solution 3 in 1 after 4 idealise.

Step II : Universities 6 idealise 5 elope 2 solution 3 in 1 after 4.

Step III : Universities 6 idealise 5 solution 4 elope 2 3 in 1 after.

Step IV: Universities 6 idealise 5 solution 4 elope 3 2 in 1 after.

Step V : Universities 6 idealise 5 solution 4 elope 3 after 2 in 1.

Step V is the last step of the above arrangement as the intended arrangement is obtained. As per the rules followed in the given step, find out the appropriate steps for the given input.

10. Which of the following will be at the fifth position from the right end in the last step?

1) 6

2) awareness

3) 3

4) encourage

5) None of these

Answers:

I.

R and S may be on 4 and 5.

II.

2. 5

From (II) – Let 1st division = x, so failed = 3x

From (I) – 2nd division = 2x

Combining x + 2 x + 3 x = 48

x = 8

3. 5

I.

II.

Combining, total = (19 + 15) - 1 = 34 - 1 = 33

4. 3

From Statement (I)

From Statement (II)

5. 4

From Statement (I) C > B, D

From Statement(II) A > C, E

(But we don’t know who is-heavier among B, D)

(6-10):

The machine rearranges one word and one number in each step. The word that has highest number of vowels comes first in an alphabetical order followed by the number equal to the total number of vowels in that word.
